This is a perfect example of why people should act as if they are going to have to take an eminent domain case to court as soon they hear a whisper of anyone with eminent domain wanting the property. 

Dig your heels in, and who knows what this person will whisper into the seller's ear.

Now, I've heard whispers that Globeville is about to go completely nuts and might be the only place to invest in Denver Proper for any B&H investor. 

Unless you're willing to invest in this for a loss as an autonomous learning experience, get someone.I should add that all my impish personal demons are whispering to me to tell you to just pick up some spackle at the dollar store and go for it.

Makes it hurt a little less, even if they don't call you in the morning but you are still whispering sweet nothings to yourself. 

Whispering Pines, Montville Maine. 15 minutes outside Belfast. 

And that little whisper is some how holding me back.

Most of us are probably not "applicant whisperers" like you so I will stick to income verification, credit reports and landlord references thanks.

They broke in and took back their furniture.Tom Goans - all I can say is wow - but I thought you were some kind of "tenant whisperer":https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/81/topics/91898-tenant-and-borrower-screening

There have been many caught at this and yes the FBI will nail them.. there was a case in NC 10 years or so ago were guys got huge fines and jail time.basically if your at a sale and two or three bidders are going for the same property and they start whispering to each other then suddenly stop or the property gets sold for 1 dollar over you kind of know some deal was made.In our market there were many that would just show up with cashiers check's qualify to bid with no intention of buying their only reason for being there was to get the 1 to 2k pay off.
